Since 1994, this unique collection has comprised over 80 of these organs preserved in formaldehyde — both healthy specimens whose internal structures, such as the cerebellum and hippocampus, are clearly displayed and labeled, as well as pathological ones showing the effects on the anatomy of the brain of Alzheimer's disease, aneurysms, and other maladies. Exhibits are engagingly designed and accessible to everyone from the layman to the academic.

Militello's Luggage
These folks have been outfitting travel-happy Buffalonians with wheeled suitcases, duffle bags, tote bags, garment covers, and other high-quality luggage and travel accessories since 1946, with renowned brands such as Briggs & Kelly, Travelpro, Eagle Creek, and Hartmann represented among the selection. But that's not the end of the story at Militello's: they're also a full-service purveyor of leather goods whose oeuvre extends into the realm of attaché cases, wallets, and even repair service. Customer parking is available at the rear of the building, a relative rarity in the Heights.

Burger Authority
Okay, so the prices are high (especially given the place's location in the middle of a student ghetto), the portion sizes are nothing to write home about, and the setup is fast-casual without much in the way of ambience. But if you're prepared to splurge, all of the foregoing is justified by the stellar quality of the food. At Burger Authority they're made with superior-quality, grass-fed beef, cooked to order and served on brioche buns sturdy enough to not fall apart under a mountain of meat and toppings. Choose from among a huge range of specialty options, available à la carte or as "super" or "happy" deals in combination with various sides. You can even get your burger made halal for no extra charge.

Grover Cleveland Golf Course
Located at the far northeast corner of the city, across Bailey Avenue from UB's South Campus, this 18-hole, par 69 course is not only one of Western New's most challenging, but also one of its most historic: as the home of the Country Club of Buffalo from 1900 until its move to the suburb of Williamsville in 1925, the course was the site of the first airplane flight in Western New York, which took off from here in 1910, played host to the 1912 U.S. Open, and contains on its premises the, the second-oldest extant building in the city (built in 1822, four years after the Coit House in Allentown), now used for storage and office space. The Grover Cleveland Golf Course boasts a practice green, men's and ladies' locker rooms, and a clubhouse and concession stand. During winter, cross-country skiing and snowshoeing is permitted from 7AM-dusk.
